We gave up too much in the first quarter. If I could take anything back, that would be it. We came out in the second half, got back in the game and tied it up. But we never could take the lead.

Katie Barnett

The problem we are facing is huge. The acute demand is leading to supply-side shortages.

Noshir Kaka

Flattening orders and improving leading edge capacity utilization ? the industry is clearly entering the trough.

Brett Hodess

Of all the factors leading to the favorable results, our decision to dramatically boost automation in our broker-dealer operations mid-2005 had the greatest impact on profitability.

Thomas Joyce

Anything that comes up in the assembly that is likely to lead us closer to the Republic of Ireland -- we will block these, we will vote against them, and we will endeavor to stop them.

Gregory Campbell

The Board is committed to act quickly and decisively to select the right CEO to lead the company into its next stage of growth and development.

Keith Krach

That would lead to more bullish analyst reports on the companies, which would help the stock price. We wouldn't change our estimates on the company, but we'd say in the reports the official expectation was conservative.

Stephen Mcclellan

It's been the blind leading the blind because this is the first time I had touched radio dials.

Julie Cordova

He's going to be the favorite tomorrow. But a four-shot lead is never too much to make up.

Craig Barlow

I can't be disappointed with that final race ? we are leading the championship.

Russell Ingall

When you get an early lead, in the kid's minds, you think you've got to catch up in a hurry.

Darrell Haynes

I was like, 'You're kidding me. How could I be leading, not peddling a good portion of the course?'

John Fisher

We're making a world of difference in a world of facial differences. Those of us who understand the journey...it's our responsibility to lead.

Debbie Oliver

Being able to sit on a lead overnight and win will add to his confidence. I wouldn't be surprised if Luke won more consistently now.

Pat Goss

Palo played huge for us. She took great care of the ball and continues to lead our team.

Steve Segadelli

They are great captains on and off the field. They are leading by example and helping with the younger players.

Lindsey Mateo

We expect the new models to do well in the U.S. in 2006, which will lead to a lack of production capacity.

Norihito Kanai

We sent our two-guard deep and got some easy baskets. Our man-to-man press killed them early and we were able to get a quick lead.

Tony Catanzaro

I tried to do something. It's not like much was happening. I was trying to get something going, get a little spark and see if we could cut the lead a little.

Nikki Flores

Even if cloning begins with a benign purpose, it could lead to scientific categories of superior and inferior people.

Cliff Stearns

Mimi's races were great. Watching her go back and forth in the lead was exciting.

Jon Wilson

There are things that lead you to believe this is not variant CJD.

Cheryle Becker

It really opened my eyes on the volume of lead involved. And if you go back for all the decades we've been fishing these lakes, it's not hard to figure how much lead is down there. It's caused me to re-evaluate what's in my tackle box.

Paul Radomski

Tomorrow will be big water. We are closer to the lead after the first day than I was last year, so we are not unhappy to be where we are.

Hank Mcgregor

These are all guys that with one swing of the bat can put us in the lead or get us back in the ballgame.

Stan Hyman

Playing with the lead kept us on our toes.

Bill Hutton

Clement was leading the short list.

Jim Stewart

We have to concentrate and not look at the lead. Since we're conscious of it, that it's a weakness, we made it through.

Taylor Bennett

Through many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come; 'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far, And grace will lead me home.

John Newton

We've got a two-run lead; you can't put guys on base, especially late.

Kyle Davies

Colorectal cancer is the third leading cause of cancer in women, and it's the third leading cause of cancer-related death in women.

Chad Potteiger

From the beginning they scored the first basket and we were always catching up. And it's hard to play when you are down. The last two games we had the lead. I guess we play better when we are ahead early.

Sasa Cuic

It just hurt the momentum for us. I think if we're up 3-2, we'd have the lead and then see how they'd respond. It has an affect on everything.

Sid Cash

We believe these estimates are conservative, ... Our internal estimates are far more aggressive. However, until we put better numbers on the board, we are not going to lead you to any higher estimates.

Donald Mckay

They're two of the best captains I have ever seen. They have done a good job of leading by example-but not only leading by example, but by being vocal too. They have been the most responsible for the place where we are at.

Whitney Hite

We need clear leadership. We need someone who can put a team together and lead us through our crisis.

Ron Forman

He has won very convincingly. The president is going to lead Uganda with a very comfortable margin.

Ofwono Opondo

We don't lead, we guide. We depend on peer counselors and children who have been through the process.

Kris Grawitch

Leonard gave it all he could. He really got fit leading up to the race. I'm really proud of him.

Sam Inman

We played good D for the first 25 minutes, then we fell apart defensively, then we caught up. We haven't been consistent. The defense was better [Saturday]. We opened up a lead and frustrated somebody else for a change.

Harry Perretta

I don't want to come to Washington to be just another vote. I want to lead on issues that are important.

Mel Martinez

I am encouraged by the fact that we've been in two games against two very good teams, we had control of the game. When you have the lead, you don't drop your heads. That's when you go even harder.

Nate Mcmillan

It was great. In a couple of games, we got up and took a pretty early lead and I got to get the subs in, so it was a learning experience, too.

Jeff Kirkpatrick

I lead them every Thursday morning.

Nathan Dalpini

We've blown so many games this year. Good teams don't let up when they have a lead. We did that tonight.

Janne Niinimaa

When we could've quit we didn't. When you have the lead most of the game and they take it back, we didn't quit then. We just buckled down, stayed with our game plan and did what we had to do.

Craig Swanson

If two leading state agencies say they're not going to look into this, then why should I? It gets frustrating looking at this over and over again.

Donald Defedele

We jumped out to a lead and they never were able to cut into it. I think we did a good job of taking them out of what they wanted to do.

Bryce Swafford

You kind of take away some of the hope some of the teams come in to our ballpark having [with big innings]. It gives our pitcher some comfort in going out there and pitching with the lead.

Matt Bransfield

It's going to be interesting to have our cast on vacation the week before the show. Everyone who is a lead is going to Florida.

Laura Parker

It's a level-three violation, which means it could lead to expulsion.

Aaron Fetrow

I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him.

Mark Twain

With that kind of lead and that much time to go, we should have been able to take care of business. But all of a sudden they got hot.

Gordie Kerkman

My preparations leading up to this weekend have been fantastic. I feel the most confident I have ever been going into a marathon.

Deena Kastor

She hit some shots and did a great job of leading the team.

Karen Stephens

I'm excited to have the opportunity to lead one of the true e-commerce innovators.

Frank Newman

We came out lacking intensity and made some fielding errors early, but we bounced right back and took the lead with some key hits.

Brent Pearson

They are the milestone of the team. They lead by example and really showed that.

Andrew Nugnes

We came out strong, got a couple-goal lead and played real well in the first quarter.

Brian Voelker

I had a good game, but I was trying to lead my team to a victory. Even though we came up short, I had one of my best games on both ends of the floor.

Cedric Simmons

Banks and brokerages are leading the market higher.

Masaharu Sakudo

We lead the state in moral victories.

Tr Harlan

The chance that Taiwan has to lead in this space is now excellent.

Sean Maloney

Those guys have been leading us all year. We're sad to see these seniors go, but that's just part of the process.

Jason Vela

We're heading in the right direction. We're feeling strong about ourselves and the women are leading the way.

Shane Pearsall

There's a reason why they're leading our division and that's because they're able to execute the fundamentals in close games.

Mike Basso

Too great a preoccupation with motives (especially one's own motive) is liable to lead to too little concern for consequences.

Katherine Whitehorn

A leading party with less than 30 seats is much more dependent on partner parties.

Yoram Peri

We believe a happy employee will lead directly to happy customers.

Chris Hammond

What is really sad is he had an incredible opportunity to lead this department in a new direction, but he chose to alienate people.

Lance Corcoran

It's been my observation that for the most part, students are doing the leading.

Jeff Taylor

We have to do a better job than that. We haven't had the lead and had to get it inbounds at the end very often in the last few weeks.

Brian Gregory

We have to learn, once we get a lead, we have to bury teams.

Morris Peterson

I really think that people are beginning to focus on the individuals that they think are the right people to lead at this time.

Marvin Hoot

China's beer market has entered a new era with increasing involvement of the world's leading beer producers, such as Heineken and Budweiser, in the country.

Brent Willis

We don't have a winner's mentality. We've lost so many close games. If you win those games, then when it gets down to the end, you know what to do to tie it, or hold on to the lead. We lack that experience.

Geno Parrish

The Internet is fast becoming a transaction medium in addition to a content medium. Our intent is to make AltaVista the leading guide for both information and e-commerce.

Rod Schrock

Even though we knew we were in, leading up to hearing our name, everyone was a little anxious and had some butterflies. When we saw our name and seed, we were satisfied with that.

Marcelus Kemp

To get all those parties into discussions will lead to greater productivity.

Robert Best

We killed ourselves (with penalties). We could have been ahead more … but we let them come back and once we gave up the lead, we couldn't answer. We let down our intensity, and that was probably the most disappointing thing.

Tim Finn

We weren't ready to play. They got a huge lead and never recovered from it. In all honesty we didn't have any place to go.

Billy Waller

We had a lead today, but it was a short one. One bad inning, that's all it was. When you lose that edge of momentum, things change quickly. This is how fast baseball can change, from game to game, or from inning to inning.

Dennis Holmberg

When we get a lead like that of 10 points, the defense can sit back and play the way they want to play. When they're able to do that, they're a lot more dangerous.

Todd Heap

This list also has the merit, we hope, of leading the way at a European level, so that we get a European blacklist as soon as possible.

Maxime Coffin

There are a lot of investors out there who look at oil as a leading indicator for commodity investing.

David Gornall

Another big factor leading to strong demand for gold is the uncertainty over Iran.

Hiroyuki Kikukawa

Escaped debris burning continues to be the leading cause of wildfires in this area, ... Blowing sparks and embers from debris fires can ignite dry grass, and irresponsible equipment use can also lead to wildfires if dry weather prevails.

Sandra Taylor

That's a quarterback's dream, to lead the team down the field at the end for the winning touchdown.

Curt Clifford

Not only will it lead to a better understanding of this grouping but will enable marketers to target more effectively.

Refiloe Mataboge

It was not very pretty. Hopkinton kept coming back. We could never build a [big] lead.

Trevor Howard

That makes no sense at all. It will go over like a lead balloon.

Debra Edwards

I will continue to lead by example. Actions, of course, speak louder than words.

Gerard Arpey

The acquisition of PCS is a unique opportunity to acquire one of the country's leading pharmacy benefits managers.

Martin Grass

The black churches didn't lead on civil rights, either. Martin stood out there. Then the black churches came along. I believe it's the same thing with HIV. The Balm in Gilead is leading the call.

Pernessa Seele

We played really well. Down the stretch we had chances. We had a chance to get a lead; they hit a couple (of shots) and we didn't.

Chris Lander

GRE has, in fact, become the lead entity for economic development here in the community. And I think that's the most exciting thing.

Michael Finney

If Tom plays well, he's going to win. You'd hate to blow a lead like that. That's for sure.

Lonnie Nielsen

I tried to go to the lead but then I saw No. 6 (Ball Four) go to the lead, so I stayed in the second lane because my horse doesn't like getting dirt in his face.

Rafael Bejarano

A four-spot (in the fourth) with Reyes and our bullpen is a comfortable lead, but you never know.

Garrett Jones

There are a lot of people who don't lead cops to dead bodies. I led the cops to everything.

Demar Rhome

As long as we think that there's something else that we can do that may lead us to the answer, we're going to continue to do it.

Bob Francis

Moderation is what will lead to success.

Sunny Robinson

Nick had one of his better games. Getting out to that big lead was a nice way to begin the game.

Rob Wostratzky

With Merced, it's been one delay after another, ... So we feel we can lead [64-bit computing] with Alpha.

John Randolph

I'm fortunate to have this second chance, and I expect to make the most of it. I'm looking forward to helping lead our team down this conference stretch.

Marcus Morrison

The main thing was, the horse broke good. You have to get close to the lead here, especially with so many horses. My horse was ready and feeling good.

Juan Garcia

Sewage can lead to another disaster, which is disease.

Walter Maestri

I don't want my husband to push me around in a wheelchair. I don't want someone to lead me around because I'm blind.

Della Reese

This is the sort of game where those guys lead the way and the younger players will be looking to feed off their direction.

Wayne Graham

My father and I met Lead Belly in the Angola Penitentiary in 1933. We came there looking for the roots of American black song, and we certainly found them with Lead Belly.

Alan Lomax

We came out fast, hard and aggressive. We got up 2-0, but they say that's the hardest lead to hold. It was for us tonight. They played as hard as we did, it was a good game.

Paul Clayton

It's flat ground and the houses are evenly spread apart. And there are only two or three steps leading up to the houses.

Ray Walsh

That's kind of big game for Bobby on offense. He made two big hoops for us early in the game that gave us the lead. From there, his defense did the rest.

Craig Haase

It was a back-and-forth game. We got a bit of a lead and Josip had a great game. But we really didn't do anything to break away.

Karel Jelinek

We're a first-half team. We get a little comfortable with our leads. It's not really us pushing back, just trying to keep our lead.

Bernie Ochoa

As a mater of fact, Singapore has already taken the lead in expanding cooperation with China in the financial sector.

Zhai Kun

We built that lead and I think that gave us some confidence. We've been struggling a little bit as of late, and it was definitely good to get that lead to start with. It got us off on the right foot.

Cody Ross

You may talk to someone who may not have a lead to the job you're after but might know someone who knows someone who does.

Peter Mccarthy

We do want to come out and get us a little lead early. That is one of our goals, to get the tempo going in our favor.

Cleve Ryan

We got behind and had to foul them, and they nailed their free throws. We cut a 17-point lead down.

Bob Reed

I do not want to lead another strike. I do not want to have a knock-down, drag-out fight with you every time we come to the bargaining table.

Nancy Elliott

Sales may lead to advertising as much as advertising leads to sales.

Michael Schudson

This industry is consolidating as it becomes more global. We are leading a new trend that we believe will change the future and the face of this industry.

Robert Eaton

We've got to play well early on. We can't let them get out to a big lead.

Paul Troth

When we lost Drew, that really hurt because it took our lead blocker out of there. Those injuries were really crucial, but that's not to make excuses. Marshall just ran the ball right at us and hit us hard.

Lee Edwards

I am now rather amazed that anyone is letting me lead the nation into a party.

Vic Reeves

I would have sold out for a birdie in a heartbeat. It's not important to lead the first day. I don't think it would have made much difference if I didn't make it.

Dana Quigley

We got too comfortable with our lead. We didn't match their intensity at the end of the game.

Jamelle Mcmillan

There was no automation of key processes, and no integration between systems, leading to a lack of visibility.

Warren Cook

We want to establish ourselves as the leading company in women's health care.

Bruce L. Downey

We couldn't pull away. To their credit, they played hard. But we kept our composure and didn't let them get the lead.

Orlando Griego

I try to pick up the girls as much as I can. I don't want them getting down on themselves. I just try to lead the team the best I can.

Malerie Huber

Meeting with tomorrow's leaders of Iraq was both an honor and an incredible experience, ... These are the guys that will be leading and making the decisions that will affect the future success of an Iraqi democracy.

Jim Demint

We did what we were supposed to do. We got the lead and got it up to 19, and then we just kind of put it on cruise control. We did that both halves. We've got to have a killer instinct.

Jeremy Cox

We did what we had to do to win that one. I never felt comfortable at all ever during that game. We just kept hanging on and trying to keep the lead as much as we could.

Tracy Roller

I certainly wouldn't be where I am now if it wasn't for him. I learned a lot from Craig and his biggest asset is his ability to lead from the front, although he also has a good manner about him.

Charlie Christie

When you get a lead you want to be able to hold a lead.

Todd Reece

The forms of art are inexhaustible; but all lead by the same road of aesthetic emotion to the same world of aesthetic ecstasy.

Clive Bell

Most of these guys are former athletes and it really was like a competition, to get things working again. I was the foreman on that job, but I didn't have to lead anyone -- those guys really went after it down there.

Scott Norris

That lead disappeared in a hurry, didn't it? We got a couple of key possessions, and managed to get the lead back pretty quickly.

Bob Hofman

It's not me; it's the people here. I listen and lead and coach.

Robert Bohn

The same things that lead to disparities in health in this country on a day-to-day basis led to disparities in the impact of Hurricane Katrina.

David Satcher

I thought he brought up great points about leading by stepping back.

Virginia Johnson

My only claim to fame was being all-conference and that came from leading the league in fouls. I averaged 4 a game. Thank God Joe doesn't foul much.

Kelby Krabbenhoft

I thought we moved the ball extremely well. In the second half we had a good stall after the 14-1 lead.

Jim Segar

We got the lead right away and played good defense. We did what we were supposed to do.

Jim Migneault

The most disappointing. Nobody expected 'Invasion' to hold the 'Lost' lead-in. But it's losing a good 30 (percent) to 40 percent of the lead-in. That's a lot.

Marc Berman

Our seniors are the ones that lead this team. Gillespie (.600) has one of the top batting averages on the team and Bird leads by example on the field.

Leslie Jones

I'm hoping we get off to another quick start. I will be a lot more careful in how things play out when we have a lead.

Cheryl Buffo

We knew we had to come out strong (in the fourth quarter). We didn't have that much of a lead.

Mckensey Long

Growth momentum remains strong and that should lead to higher inflation and interest rates.

Shuchita Mehta

They shouldn't be. No one is. We'll really have to screw up a six-game lead in however long we have left. That's the way I look at it.

Brian Lawrence

We didn't execute the way we executed to get the lead. We just weren't very aggressive.

David Wesley

We had a big lead early, and we let it slip. We kept it going in the fourth quarter, and we stayed with it.

Ben Seagren

It really slowed things down. Teams were successful playing that way, but it didn't lead to exciting hockey.

Red Wings

AMD did the unthinkable by surpassing Intel in October. Continuing to hold this lead in the holiday season would be a colossal win for the company.

Matt Sargent

We're not leading the investigation into the warehouse fire. We're just assisting the local police and fire departments.

Tom Crowley

Kirk Hammett, lead guitar and attempted vocals.

Kirk Hammett

It seemed like everyone had a hit or two in that game. We were just on and once we get a four-run lead the chances are that we're going to win.

Stan Domin

The two leading preventable causes of mortality are cigarette smoking and abdominal obesity and we hit both.

Douglas Greene

Letters ultimately lead to the foundation of theater, which is communication.

Daniel Stein

I knew exactly what I needed to do to beat [Jacobson] so I didn't give her any room to breathe and just went out, got ahead form the start and kept the lead.

Mariel Zagunis

I haven't heard anything or seen anything out there that would lead me to believe that all of a sudden there's an unexpected drop in PCs.

Daniel Morgan

It will still be the leading party in Mexico.

Sergio Sarmiento

Every country wants leading companies. Why should Spain renounce its right to one?

Jose Montilla

It shouldn't even have gotten to that, ... You go out there with the lead, you've got to come in and put guys away right away. That's a tough way to lose right there.

Joe Borowski

At Athens we came up with the idea of using a single graphics folder per day. We have folders for each day, one per day for the 10 days leading up to the games and one folder for each of the 17 days of the games. This means everyone, including all the audio guys, knows where to drop their work.

Phil Paully

In the current environment people will see things in a sectarian light... and it may well lead to further expansion of growing sectarian animosities.

Joost Hiltermann

Dear God, we ask you to afflict Bill O'Reilly with a brain aneurysm that will lead to his slow and painful death.

Larry Flynt

I was hoping to get up near the lead and I was able to do that, ... My goal was to shoot four-under so I did one better than that.

Chris Couch

The key was getting the lead-off runner on base. And then knowing we had to move the runners. They looked at me to call it (the bunt off), but I wouldn't call it off.

Tara Garrett

It was a game of ifs tonight. If Gilbert hadn't made those threes we would've had a double-digit lead.

Gary Stronach

I think we were too juiced. But our attitude was great and we knew Lake Forest would not quit, even after we had built the kind of lead we had.

Mike Dimatteo

We couldn't close it out. We took the lead, but we couldn't make the most of that opportunity, and came out on the short end.

Jody Bronson

I just feel we got ourselves into too big of a hole early to overcome that lead.

Susie Runaas

When you have a three-goal lead it should hold up in any building. We've got no excuses.

Rob Sumner

The lawsuit could lead to additional exposure to AMD for investors and customers.

Kevin Rottinghaus

That cleaned it up for us. (The lead) went from eight to 11 and showed that the kids were working.

Jim Brooks

We didn't have a big lead, and we knew Rock Island would fight to the end. I didn't want to let up just because we had an early lead.

Jenna Howard

He took a hit when he got hurt, but just to see him work hard and never be down about anything, he's just a great kid. Now, he's a junior and he's leading his team and I get to come back and watch him evolve.

Wesley Matthews

We just wanted to come out strong and focus on defense. (The early lead) gave us a lot of confidence.

Katy Clark

The last couple of games we've been coming out a little flat. Tonight we came out with a lot of energy and were able to build a lead.

Cyndi Valentin

We have our five leading scorers coming back next year, and hopefully we can come back and make a little bit of noise.

Troy Schirmer

We were real nervous. We didn't know what we were going to do, but the group that was in kept the lead. We got back in and took it from there.

Jordan Brooks

They weren't happy with a small lead. This group isn't going to stop what they're doing just because they have a lead.

Joni Vaughan

We had a really good defensive start, which helped us a lot to get a lead early in the half.

April Sinkler

Scott's contributions to America's newspapers go far beyond leading the advertising and research teams in San Diego.

John Kimball

I don't know where it (evidence) will lead, but I'm going to go there.

David Hoffman

We kept getting stops. Our defense gave us a lot more opportunities on offense to kind of spread the lead. Eventually, we did that.

Kyle Wilson

As in the rest of the world, breast cancer in Cayman is one of these leading causes of death in women and in cancer-related deaths.

Christine Sanders

(Taking the lead) was much like when Danica (Patrick) took the lead at Indy.

Andrew Brown

We had to expend an incredible amount of energy to get back in it. But getting the lead down as much as we did says a lot about the heart of the girls on the floor.

Tim Peters

Intuit is defining and leading the new world of e-finance -- and that strategy is paying off.

Scott Cook

I knew if I could just get out of the first pit stop in the lead, we would have a chance.

Justin Wilson

It's nice to get everyone back. I was really proud of the effort they put forth. We spotted them the 4-0 lead and the guys showed they know how to fight back and I was really proud of them.

Matt Haskell

I just read the end. I got a couple of lead blockers and they followed me into the end zone.

Jon Rusch

I think we just kind of got comfortable with that lead, too, when we were up 20. We didn't want to finish it out.

Nathan Patterson

He's the leader of the team. He's one of our captains and was our leading tackler last year.

Jesse Rosenberger

Danville had a five point lead at halftime. Our defense came alive in the fourth and it made the difference.

Tim Whitney

(May) was a monster. We jumped out to an early lead and never looked back.

Dan Rose
